Getting a bit worried here as well. =/

Features announced (or already present) in Octane standalone look great. But if development of the C4D plugin slows down, while Redshift continues to get more and more integrated into C4D then there will be a widening gap in usability, as amazing as Octane is as a renderer.

Development will not be slowing down. I've just passed it to Otoy's team, they are working on. I'll not be much visible in forums unless it's really necessary.

@aoktar: Aaah, that's very good to hear, thanks for the update! : )

You know what otoy needs for each plugin.. .for transparency to users…. A Trello Board..
Do what the redshift team did.. it would bring so much good will!

Erm… far be it from me to nag, but it's been two months without an update. This is very uncommon for those of us who've been using Octane for, ahem, a while.

Meanwhile, The Professor (the magnificent Raphael Rau) has had to turn to Blend to show new features are they are not available for Cinema4D yet.

2025.1 looks cool, but it seems us C4D people on the last bus

Oh, and I hope Aoktar, you are enjoying your new job! Thanks for everything

i suspect this is mostly get up to speed time… “i hope” if not… then. dire indeed - again a trello board would really help with customer transparancy.. Redshift team does that and its wonderful to see progress! @jules

Hi guys,

don't worry, the team is working hard on c4doctane plugin!

You will be surprised by the long list of fixes and improvements of the upcoming new version we are going to publish!

Stay tuned!

ciao,
Beppe

We were more thinking about something like this: https://portal.productboard.com/epicgam ... engine-5-5

But it would be for the C4D Octane plugin only for now.

UGG..yeah thats soooooo annoying to look at vs a Trello board.. thats more advertising than is it development!… uggggg my eyes!
keep in mind like any good kanban board.. Trello cards can be moved around easily and comments added and moved from one build to the next if things get bumped. right tool for the right job i would say…
